Our stay was short, but this home was the perfect overnight getaway for our family of 5. The home looked exactly as described. It was so clean, welcoming, and comfy. We loved the attention to detail throughout the house and the personal touches too. The gazebo was a great place to relax at the end of the day too. We’ll definitely look to stay here again next time we’re in the area!

There are several important observations to share regarding our recent stay:Strong Chemical Odor: The smell of insect poison (such as Raid) was pervasive throughout the unit. It was so strong that even clean clothes hung in the closet absorbed the odor.Pest Presence: We encountered roaches in the sinks, which likely explains the heavy use of chemical repellents.Tobacco Smell: In addition to the chemical odor, there was a lingering smell of stale tobacco smoke, which made the environment less pleasant.Unclean Entry Area: The gate handle at the entrance was caked in bird droppings, which gave a poor first impression and posed a hygiene concern.Dishwasher Non-Functional: The dishwasher was not in working condition during our stay.Safety Concern: The steps leading to the entryway are in need of a handrail for safety, especially for guests with mobility concerns.Responsive Ownership: On a positive note, when the hot water stopped working, the owner promptly replaced the heating element the same afternoon, which was appreciated.Overall Impression:While some issues could be overlooked, the overwhelming and persistent odors (chemical and tobacco) were the most difficult to tolerate. Under normal circumstances, we would have looked for alternate accommodations upon arrival, but due to the lack of availability of other two-bedroom properties, we chose to stay and make the best of the situation.

There's so much to love this little house: fun decor and themed rooms, the history of the home and connection to the owners, nice quiet neighborhood, walking distance to the river, easy drive to downtown, fabulous backyard for the pup. Communication from the owners was fantastic. My college-age daughters and I enjoyed playing games, watching movies, walking the neighborhood, finding new restaurants, exploring parks and walking paths, and hanging downtown. My dachshund really enjoyed the backyard! There's also an adorable screened gazebo out there. Highly recommend, would stay again!

Great Stay!

Great communication! Super price for the area. We've stayed her two times now for a sport's tournament and it was the perfect place to relax each evening. Clean, cute, had everything we needed and much better than staying in a noisy hotel with the rest of the team :) The owners are great--super friendly too!
